#Brahmastra, #Adipurush were such a big waste of oppertunity!! Had people like Prashant Varma got that oppertunity….!
It will be though to believe such Visuals and VFX is achieved with a budget of less than 30 crs!! Lots of credits to director @PrasanthVarma#HanuMan pic.twitter.com/5HmDn8sCf4

Another comment suggested that colossal projects like Brahmastra and Adipurush missed significant opportunities, contrasting them with the creative prowess of Prasanth Varma.
The only question that arises after watching #Hanuman is that does #Adipurush really had a budget of 400 Cr? Or it was 4 Cr? 🤦🏻
A good job done by #PrasanthVarma and the team given the limited budget ✨
